I wish we had more info on the trackers!  But we don't need to let the thieves know any of it.  Is this like the iPhone tracker?

they mention them in this article on bee theft. (https://www.popsci.com/story/science/bee-hive-theft-inside-look/)  It was one of the ones I read while going down the rabbit hole thanks to iddee that started the random facts in the chat  ;D

A trail camera hidden in a corner of my barn/shop put the guy in jail Tuesday morning from a break in Saturday morning. Deputy was elated when I told him I have a camera in there. I also have one on my bees.

Way to go, RAST!  That's fantastic! What was stolen?
Wow Zweefer!  Those are pricey, but you really need one in an apiary.  If you have a really large apiary you could place it closest to the access road.
